EcoAmerica: Building Climate Leadership and Public Support for Climate Solutions in the United States
EcoAmerica is a non-profit organization that is dedicated to building climate leadership, public support, and political will for climate solutions in the United States. The organization was founded in 2006 with a mission to help America transition to a sustainable future by engaging leaders and citizens across all sectors of society.
The organization's work is focused on three main areas: leadership development, research and analysis, and communications. Through these efforts, EcoAmerica aims to create a more informed public that understands the urgency of addressing climate change and supports policies that will help mitigate its effects.
Leadership Development
One of EcoAmerica's primary goals is to develop climate leaders who can drive change at all levels of society. The organization offers training programs for individuals who want to become more effective advocates for climate action. These programs are designed to provide participants with the skills they need to engage with policymakers, build coalitions, and communicate effectively about the urgency of addressing climate change.
Research and Analysis
EcoAmerica conducts research on public attitudes towards climate change in order to better understand how people think about this issue. This research helps inform the organization's communication strategies by identifying key messages that resonate with different audiences. EcoAmerica also analyzes policy proposals related to climate change in order to provide policymakers with evidence-based recommendations.
Communications
Effective communication is essential for building public support for action on climate change. EcoAmerica works closely with partners across various sectors – including business, faith communities, health professionals, local governments –to develop messaging strategies that resonate with their respective audiences.
The organization also produces reports on best practices for communicating about climate change effectively. These reports offer guidance on how organizations can frame their messages in ways that are compelling and persuasive while avoiding common pitfalls such as using overly technical language or focusing too much on doom-and-gloom scenarios.
